Info The Goseck solar observatory is by now the oldest known solar observation circle in the world, having been discovered and restored just recently. I came along in the warm morning light of a grand day and so had the chance to take some nice shots of it. --Kreuz schnabel 06:17, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, I see only a wooden fence, missing the solar observatory! --Alchemist-hp (talk) 12:11, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps it would be better to write "entrance" of the observatory --LivioAndronico talk 14:39, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Sorry, I have had a look at the thing (online) and I guess that I would not have a much better idea for photographing it. Yet, I feel that the image is not featurable if the commenters above think that the motive is just some random fence, not the instrument itself. Perhaps a view from an elevated position would be good or perhaps trying to offer a look through one of the openings, but obviously an ideal image is hard to get here. --DXR (talk) 16:10, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose As I often say, I can see what you were thinking. But perhaps you should try a different time of day. The high contrast between the sides is very jarring to the eye and isn't necessary for understanding the subject. Daniel Case (talk) 17:43, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Really nice and not bad however the composition is a bit unbalanced IMO, too much shadow, even if shadow is not an evil, on the left part. -- ChristianFerrer 08:32, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Not good composition. Too dark. No Wow to me. Also, the things mentioned by DXR are justified. --Halavar (talk) 11:59, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
